well, yes that is true but with symbs you have an easier time with the certain abilities you need. And yes, symbs arent that good until TL3. So i take the symbs thing back but no matter what trader would win.

It depends as a enf with styg and he uses rage before fight with mochams he Would have like 300 NR. + NR items and IP and Implants you could get close to 500-600 NR. with the enf full def and uses debuff like psymod -20 debuff there is a chance the trader cant drain and pwns him.

Selfed, CM enf with frosty has twice the hp, frosty wont go OE even with both drains and will pwn the trader.. fr00b enf can just keep the 190% ransack from landing and keep 100% frosty for the same effect. OBd 25 trader would win if done properly predrained/mochams with RRFE/HnQ but thats just OB whoring really.

on my 25 enforcer, I always win 1 on 1 fights with self buffed traders. simply because I can get a good amount of NR with rage and go full def until the trader tries his first drain. Then when they fail the drain i go back to full agg for a few seconds to do some damage, chasing him around with my superior raging runspeed. Remember, traders cant use gumboils unbuffed and their stygian will be around 75% at best if undrained. It only takes a few seconds to destroy a trader with an enforcers alpha, if you use flurry of blows to make the stygian 1/1. Traders, even atrox traders are way squishier than an enfo at the same level.
